These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

![]() sberlin....sorry, but no avail...it does the same thing....another thing, when I restart the computer, I send the error report and Microsoft tells me the problem as being Error Message: STOP 0x000000EA THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER (Q293078) ....i hope that helps some. I'll go ahead and attach the file I created so you can see if it's messed up. thanks again |
| |||
![]() Oops -- it seems to have created the file with a ".txt" extension. The name needs to be "launch.properties"... To rename it, go back to the place you created it, and then click 'Tools' and 'Folder Options' from the menu at the top. Then click the 'View' tab. There, uncheck the box infront of "Hide extensions for known file types". Then click 'Apply' and 'OK'. After that, right-click on the file again and rename it to "launch.properties" (it should be listed as "launch.properties.txt" before renaming). Then try LimeWire again. Sorry for the confusing directions! Thanks, |

![]() sberlin, once again, my condolences, but it didn't work. I changed those settings just like you said and all went well and then I booted LW and then hit connect and I got the blue screen....I restarted and tried it again and got the same thing....any other ideas? I'm desparate here. LW worked just fine yesterday and I didn't change any settings to my knowledge and then today it just decided to show me the blue screen every time out of nowhere.....so I uninstalled it and re-installed it (even got a newer version) and it's still not working.....thanks for any help |
| |||
![]() Oh, it was working fine yesterday? That's relatively good news. Are you positive nothing happened between the time it worked and the time it stopped working? Did Windows do any updates, or was any program installed or updated? I recommend running AdAware and removing anything it reports, as well as going to java.com and making sure Java is updated. Also, just to make sure LimeWire is reading that file, can you delete everything from in it (so it's an empty file, but it should still exist). Starting LimeWire should show, "LimeWire was unable to load. Please download and install LimeWire again." If that doesn't show (and LimeWire works), then it's not managing to read the file. I've put a copy of what the file should be on our server -- you can right-click on the link and choose 'Save Target As' and save it as 'launch.properties' in the directory that LimeWire.exe is in (same place as before). The file is at http://www.limewire.org/temporary_fo...nch.properties . Thanks. Hopefully we can figure out what's causing this and fix it. |

![]() sberlin, ok, I deleted all the stuff inside that file and started limewire and that box came up that said limewire couldn't start...just like you said. As for changes in my compter, I can't recall all that I did between when it worked and when it didn't work. One thing I DO think I did was uninstall the primary and secondary IDE channel drivers because they were stuck on PIO mode only and I had to uninstall them to get them back to DMA mode...other than that, I don't think I did anything major if anything at all....what's next? thanks |
| |||
![]() also....I have Norton and it's updated and it runs a full system scan every morning and this computer is virus free and I run ad-aware almost every day and I did run it earlier today when I was trying to get LW to work so the comp is relatively clean of that crap too...and how do you get updates for java??? I went to the website and I can't find where they have updates....I opened java on my comp and I can't find a link on that either. thanks |
| |||
![]() Hmm -- well it's good to know that at least some things have changed. Sorry to go through such a long process to figure out what's wrong -- I know how frustrating it is to try things only to have to restart the computer after they don't work. I've gone through that uninstall-drivers-reinstall-for-DMA thing before, and it was no fun at all. For some reason, things went crazy (most notably, my SoundBlaster card, which forever skipped). What was the reason you wanted the controllers to be set up for DMA? As far as Java goes -- there should be a button on www.java.com that says, "Get It Now". You might want to try uninstalling Java (from Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs) prior to going there also, just to make sure it gives you the most recent version. |
| |||
![]() the reason I wanted DMA is because it was on there originally and when I was trying to get DVDXCOPY to work, one of their troubleshooting steps was to dick with those controller drivers and that stuck them in PIO mode only....and PIO mode is the slowest of the modes....after I changed those drivers and they were stuck on PIO mode.....I noticed a HUGE difference in the speed of my comp....it slowed down dramatically...and just today I figured out why and reinstalled those drivers. any other ideas for limewire? thanks |
